[Ethan Clive Osgoode]

you and Osgood are working off the same distorted misrepresentations... this whole ramble by Osgood... Osgood doesn't get within ten miles of an actual examination... Osgood is in effect arguing that nuclear... Osgood's own prejudices against "Darwninists"... Osgood could not possibly have missed this passage when he extracted... Osgood's rants can be seen... what fever-dream Osgood pulled *that* fantasy...

Hey, stupid. Listen to me. First off, the name is Osgoode. Second, the writer of the essay is David Stove. Pay more attention next time before composing your standard mindless Darwinian regurgi-refutations.

Hey, stupid. Listen to me.

My, aren't you charming. Where's that Abuse button? Ah, there it is...

First off, the name is Osgoode. Second, the writer of the essay is David Stove.

Direct your rant at Cicero, he made the original error when he wrote, "I really don't know what all this talk is about 'straw men,' since Osgood does, indeed, fairly represent what Darwinists and Social Darwinists have actually said". I was responding to him, and presumed he knew what he was saying -- silly me, I should know better than to assume that creationists can get even the simple stuff right.

Funny, you didn't blast *him*...

Pay more attention next time before composing your standard mindless Darwinian regurgi-refutations.

The part where you refuted my points seems to have gotten lost in transmission.

But yes, next time I'll do what I usually do, which is double-check anything a creationist says against original sources. My only excuse in this one case was that it was 3am my time, I was tired, and I was rushing to try to beat the impending "FreeRepublic going down for maintenance" deadline.
